can: c_can: Fix RX message handling, handle lost message before EOB

2013-11-29T19:27:53+00:00

commit 5d0f801a2ccec3b1fdabc3392c8d99ed0413d216 upstream.

If we handle end of block messages with higher priority than a lost message,
we can run into an endless interrupt loop.

This is reproducable with a am335x processor and "cansequence -r" at 1Mbit.
As soon as we loose a packet we can't escape from an interrupt loop.

This patch fixes the problem by handling lost packets before EOB packets.

can: kvaser_usb: fix usb endpoints detection

2013-11-29T19:27:52+00:00

commit 896e23bd04ea50a146dffd342e2f96180f0812a5 upstream.

Some devices, like the Kvaser Memorator Professional, have several bulk in
endpoints. Only the first one found must be used by the driver. The same holds
for the bulk out endpoint. The official Kvaser driver (leaf) was used as
reference for this patch.

can: at91-can: fix device to driver data mapping for platform devices

2013-10-09T21:04:31+00:00

In commit:

    3078cde7 can: at91_can: add dt support

device tree support was added to the at91_can driver. In this commit the
mapping of device to driver data was mixed up. This results in the sam9x5
parameters being used for the sam9263 and the workaround for the broken mailbox
0 on the sam9263 not being activated.

This patch fixes the broken platform_device_id table.

can: flexcan: fix mx28 detection by rearanging OF match table

2013-10-09T21:02:58+00:00

The current implemetation of of_match_device() relies that the of_device_id
table in the driver is sorted from most specific to least specific compatible.

Without this patch the mx28 is detected as the less specific p1010. This leads
to a p1010 specific workaround is activated on the mx28, which is not needed.

can: flexcan: flexcan_chip_start: fix regression, mark one MB for TX and abort pending TX

2013-10-09T21:01:35+00:00

In patch

    0d1862e can: flexcan: fix flexcan_chip_start() on imx6

the loop in flexcan_chip_start() that iterates over all mailboxes after the
soft reset of the CAN core was removed. This loop put all mailboxes (even the
ones marked as reserved 1...7) into EMPTY/INACTIVE mode. On mailboxes 8...63,
this aborts any pending TX messages.

After a cold boot there is random garbage in the mailboxes, which leads to
spontaneous transmit of CAN frames during first activation. Further if the
interface was disabled with a pending message (usually due to an error
condition on the CAN bus), this message is retransmitted after enabling the
interface again.

This patch fixes the regression by:
1) Limiting the maximum number of used mailboxes to 8, 0...7 are used by the RX
FIFO, 8 is used by TX.
2) Marking the TX mailbox as EMPTY/INACTIVE, so that any pending TX of that
mailbox is aborted.

can: flexcan: fix flexcan_chip_start() on imx6

2013-09-30T11:49:09+00:00

In the flexcan_chip_start() function first the flexcan core is going through
the soft reset sequence, then the RX FIFO is enabled.

With the hardware is put into FIFO mode, message buffers 1...7 are reserved by
the FIFO engine. The remaining message buffers are in reset default values.
This patch removes the bogus initialization of the message buffers, as it
causes an imprecise external abort on imx6.

slcan: rewrite of slc_bump and slc_encaps

2013-09-20T19:38:27+00:00

The old implementation was heavy on str* functions and sprintf calls.
This version is more manual, but faster.

Profiling just the printing of a 3 char CAN-id resulted in 60 instructions
for the manual method and over 2000 for the sprintf method. Bear in
mind the profiling was done against libc and not the kernel sprintf.

Together with this rewrite an issue with sending and receiving of RTR frames
has been fixed by Oliver for the cases that the DLC is not zero.

slip/slcan: added locking in wakeup function

2013-09-20T19:38:26+00:00

The locking is needed, since the the internal buffer for the CAN frames is
changed during the wakeup call. This could cause buffer inconsistencies
under high loads, especially for the outgoing short CAN packet skbuffs.

The needed locks led to deadlocks before commit
"5ede52538ee2b2202d9dff5b06c33bfde421e6e4 tty: Remove extra wakeup from pty
write() path", which removed the direct callback to the wakeup function from the
tty layer.

As slcan.c is based on slip.c the issue in the original code is fixed, too.
